With the promotion of quality education, our country has gradually attached greater importance to education, and the education sector has also invested more educational resources in the art education. Vocal music (hereafter referred to as VM) education in particular is gaining more attention and emphasis in higher institutions. Taking advantage of the current new situation, higher institutions employ available resources to introduce heuristic teaching methods (or heuristics) into VM courses. The upgrading of educational concepts and the rectification of teaching methods can help to improve students’ enthusiasm and interest in learning VM lessons. which enables students to shift from passive to active learning and creates an active classroom atmosphere. Whereas the changes in classroom atmosphere can facilitate the cultivation of students' music accomplishment. This paper will analyze the problems in the current VM teaching in many institutions, and discuss the corresponding reform measures.
